The more I read about him the more impressed I get. They really did there homework and after seeing them pull this one out of nowhere, I think tomorrow's going to be really interesting! Feel like I got to the bottom of the whole thing. All Jeremiah’s fault on the reach. But Fangio really championed him. Is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjkline1958 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Although Jeremiah worked under HR for a few yrs, I'm sure Fangio's recommendation had a bit more pull. I do like DJ tho and follow what he says moreso than many others. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Senhorcook Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 22 hours ago, joemas6 said: Will he get to wear # 27? BTW, The weak AFC South annoys me... Saints pick should have been much higher than 50. just one more loss would have moved it up 6 slots to 44. Really could have been even borderline 40. Hopefully we don't have to move up to get any target. Didn’t they move up to 44 to get the 2nd pick? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was watching him as the pick happened...that was first thing DJ said... that Fangio was fascinated by this kid or just the opportunity to coach him...whatever the exact words were.

It is the Fangio part. Which DJ already caught wind of. But Rosie straight mentioned the urgency of not being able to hold off until later because of DJ’s best available list having him in there. This small school kid wasn’t completely hidden. But was over 200 ranked prospect on everybody else list. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mjkline1958 Posted April 27 Share Posted April 27 Maybe they knew something else about Hunt or another team wanting him. Was correct about DeJean, look at the CB run it started. Either way he's ours, on to day 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The idea was that the Eagles were thinking that he isn't really under the radar. Not so much....I have to follow Jeremiah advice. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

People say Howie needs to listen to the coaches and follow the board and they graded Hunt highly and he listened to the coaches. And now everyone is mad about the pick lol Not going to call Hunt a reach though because unless someone has NFL connections nobody knows if he was high on others boards would hope Howie and Co. have a far better feel for when a guy will be selected then anyone on this board or any ranking site Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if it was hating the pick. I was enjoying it. Reality comes back today with all these picks... we know there are going to be so many disagreements. But interesting seeing both stations that televise the draft had Hunt ranked late 2nd and early 3rd. And had been showing on the best available list for a while.

GreenbleedinNC Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 It's sad for me that we pay numerous scouts,who travel the countryside ALL YEAR,do intense interviews,spend time away from family and friends and that part of Howies huge paycheck is to evaluate those notes,watch various videos,only to rely on some has beens mock draft in the end. He would do better just to ASK THIS BOARD. I say we submit this to Lurie. I think $400,000.00(guaranteed of course 🤣) for each of us would cover it. Well wait make it an even 500k because we will all need agents 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GreenbleedinNC Posted April 27 Author Share Posted April 27 "This is a perfect developmental guy for us because of the tools in his body You DON'T draft "devlopmental guys" in round 3. Just stop trying to qualify this. It was a BAD pick. I LIKE the kid,but to say this wasn't a reach is fallacy. On to "Eagles greener" pastures today. OK I'm done and I'm not arguing about it.BTW GOOD MORNING crew!!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
